CAUTION

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover or back, No

user-serviceabBe parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel

This symbol warns the

user that uninsulated

voltage within the unit may

have sufficient magnitude

to cause electric shock.

Therefore, it is dangerous

to make any kind of

contact with any inside part

of this unit.

This symbol alerts the

user that important

literature concerning

the operation and

maintenance of this unit

has been included.

Therefore, it should be

read carefully in order to

avoid any problems.

The pictorial

representation of a hot

surface within a triangle

is intended to tell the

user that parts inside the

product are a risk of burns

to persons.

Note to CATV System Installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820°40 of the NEC that provides

guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding

system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, injury to persons or damage to this product:

1) Read these instructions before using, connecting or adjusting this product.

2) Keep these instructions for future reference.

3) Heed all warnings on the product and in this Operating Instructions manual.

4) Followalt instructions carefWly.

5) Do not use this apparatus near water. For example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in

a wet basement or near a swimming pool, and the like. Do not place objects filled with water, such as a vase or

the like, on top of this unit.

6) Clean only with a dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation and to protect it from

overheating. Never block openings by placing the product on a bed, sofa or similar surfaces.

8) Do not install near any heat source such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus

(including amplifiers) that produces heat. Do not install in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack,

unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.

9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding4ype plug. A polarized plug has two

blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding

prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit

into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,

and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11) Only use attachmentstaccessories specified by the manufacturer.

12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or

sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus

combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been

damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects

have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate

normally, or has been dropped.

15) Because the temperature of the lamp unit is elevated immediately after its use, a direct touch to it may cause

burns. Replace the lamp unit only after it has cooled.

Notes on connections

* Turn off the power supply for all components before making any connections.

. If the cables necessary for connecting a component to the system are not included with the component or available as an

option, you may need to fashion a cable to suit the component concerned.

* Read the instruction manual for each system component carefully before connecting it.

If there is a lot of jitter in the video signal input from the video source, the picture on the screen may flicker. In this case, it will

be necessary to connect a TBC (time base corrector).

When using "Nut type" RF coaxial cable, tighten with fingers only. Overtightening may damage terminal.

For proper reception of digital and analog VHF/UHF channels, an external antenna is required. For best reception, an

outdoor antenna is recommended.

Notes:

• This unit contains Video and Audio Outputs for the purpose of recording television programming to VCR. Due to license

restrictions, if a device (STB, DVD, etc.) is connected to the HDMI input of the unit, no video or audio output is allowed.

• AV Out signal is available when receiving digital channel. However, all formats will be down converted to NTSC.

• Never connect the VIDEO IN and OUT terminals to the same video recorder, as this could cause incorrect operation.

• Even if unit is in Split mode, OUT terminals only output the main picture and sound signals. A sub-picture, etc., will not be output.

• AV terminals will not output Y, PB, PR, PC/HDMI IN or SD card signals.

• Certain program content output from the AV Out connector may have the Macrovision signal modification applied to its signal,

preventing VCRs from recording this video signal.
